I've recently been following the exploits of Jack P. and Diego U. on their YouTube channel Build It Yourself. The duo has built what Ford couldn't or wouldn't, a 40-valve 4-cam v10, from a 20-valve v10 short-block and their own 40-valve over-head-cam Franken-heads. Spoiler Alert! It runs! Here is t...

I still check in on the BOM Forum once a week or so, and as we all know, it's been slow. But this is depressing. Am I really the last one to post on ALL FIVE main headings? One goes back to 20 Dec. 2022!

Hello followers of all things Binky, I've been following this build from the beginning. I don't know why it never occurred to me to share it before. This young man is well worth a look.

Hey everyone, I’d noticed a red Alfa 159 Sportswagon in the background of a couple Bargain Racement scenes, but didn’t know it was Richard’s until seeing episode 9 on Patreon today. I’ve wanted a TI since the first time I saw pictures of one, but had to wait until now to seriously consider acquirin...

I need to weld an exhaust and since my regular welder is 1780 km away, excluding the 60 hour ferry ride, I decided it was a good time to purchase another welder. Having heard the Binky partners speak well of Sip Industries I decided to check them out. Apparently things are (like Nik has suggested before i...

OK, so the BOM youtube channel is obviously the greatest, but what other channels do people follow? Toms Turbo Garage and his latest project to put a LS3 into a MX5 has been brilliant. Any other recommendations?

I had a quick search on google to see if it had been pointed out... but I didn’t get anything come up?.... so was wondering if anyone else spotted the Bad Obsession Motorsport sticker on one of fuzz’s tool chests? It was the fiat 500 episode.

My Daily rag had a story about banning internal combustion engines in UK, how will this affect the Lads and the Shed? The article said that they are moving it up due to Brexit so trying for 2030 for a complete ban..??? Not a lot of info here in the Colonies....any recommended sites

Been watching episode 4 again and I've spotted something that may or may not be relevant: The DAF frame is (I think) constant section height. The Ford frame narrows in height underneath the cab - i.e. it is taller underneath the rear spring hangers than the front ones. The top of the frame remains horiz...

Question, In the States driving a truck with air-brakes requires as far as I can tell a "Class A" operators permit or CDL (Commercial Drivers License) with an "Air-brake Endorsement". Is the same true in England? Did the Lads just shoot themselves in the foot with the axle/air-brake swap?

Hello.I have created a survey for my dissertation regarding hybrid/environmentally friendly vehicles in Motorsport and it would be great to hear the opinions of all people involved in Motorsport. Should not take any longer than 5 mins and will be a great help with my project. Thankyou in advance...

I want to get my sons (9 & 7) a hat with something they'd recognize on it. They love this build and every time a new episode is out they're glued to it. They even skip the skylander or minecraft shows to watch Binky. But all of the merch has BOM on it. Is there any chance you guys could sell something t...
